Local Celebrity

Check it out! I found out yesterday that Brynlynn made it on the COVER of the local newspaper. From what I'm told, her great-grandma practically wore her copy and showed everyone she could.

So far today I've been screening calls from countless agents, managers and the paparazzi trying to get in touch with the cutest 4-month old in Texas. ;-)

Mothers and Daughters

Just a warning, I am standing on my 'soapbox', so turn back now if you don't want to hear my rant of the day. I have strong opinions, so read at your own risk. :) I just watched this video, Mothers and Daughters , and had to share it. I watched a very disturbing episode of Oprah yesterday (the DVR recorded another episode for some reason). I won't go in to details, but despite all of the discussion I was very upset and surprised by the actions of the mother. She was basically the opposite of what a mother should reflect. She offered no love, support, encouragement and in this particular situation protection for any of her children. I particularly like how Elder Ballard mentions what expectations we as women are presented with today. Pointing out how, women are often made to look silly, and objectified. Our roles, that we are divinely given, are continually undermined . Women seek guidance on how we should look, what we should wear etc. from people that really do...

What's Fabric?

David's Bridal Highly Educated & Well Informed Employee: Thank you for calling DB. How can I help you? Me: Hi, yes I'm trying to order several yards of fabric. DBHE&WIE: I'm sorry, what? I don't understand you? Me: I'm trying to order some fabric. DBHE&WIF: order what? Me: Fabric. F-A-B-R-I-C (yes, I spelled it out for her just mistakenly thinking this would in some way make the communicating proces easier). DBHE&WIE: I don't know what that is. Me: (stunned, but I'm used to working with stupid people on the phone...here's my attempt to 'dumb it down') the stuff the clothes are made of--cotton, taffeta..? DBHE&WIE: Oh! Oh, I don't know...let me transfer you to alterations. Long story short: alterations first language was NOT English. She transferred me back... Hung up--called another location. They're going to call me back tomorrow to let me know. ps Tanlee-you owe me.

The Exersaucer

What I do while Brynlynn naps. This is why my laundry isn't done... Not sure if you picked up on this, but there were a LOT of pieces. Seriously, the price should be discounted to account for labor. I didn't get a picture/movie of all the parts spread out, but I should have. (& of course I'm kidding about not paying attention to them...kinda) Brynlynn seems to be enjoying it so far. We took her to Babies R'Us and set her in a few...this is the one she interacted with the most. Brent was so impressed with the low cost (italics=sarcasm) and the playmat that came with it. I had to remind him unless he is done at one, we can use the playmat in the future.
